"How did you manage to stay in the real world for so long?"
The small room went deadly silent upon hearing her question.
Miguel nodded his head and allowed Edith to explain this ti.
Edith smiled and moved over to sit right beside Aaliyah as she began to explain dual cultivation to her thoroughly.
Aaliyah listened attentively, as she was truly curious about how she was able to stay in the real world for so long.
As a powerful summoner herself from her previous life, she knew the limitations of the summoners the best.
Inside the grimoire, although she could not directly tell what was going on outside, she could still vaguely tell that her ’neighbors’ were being summoned and were still outside the grimoire.
She knew that Edith had still not returned, even after such a long ti, so she got curious and decided to ask. After all, as an Innate Beast, who would not want to spend more ti with their master? In fact, the greatest desire of all Innate Beasts was for their master to beco stronger as soon as possible so that they could be summoned and accompany their master in the real world for a long ti.
Edith achieved such feats even though their master was only at the Elite Summoner Rank at the mont. How could Aaliyah hide her curiosity about it?
However, as Edith went deeper with her explanation, the redder Aaliyah’s cheeks beca.
When Edith reached the point where she began to explain how Miguel inserted the Origin Energy deep inside her, Aaliyah was not able to endure it any longer as she transford into a streak of light and went back inside the grimoire.
Edith laughed wholeheartedly after seeing her cute reaction.
"That girl... I still wanted to ask her sothing about that treasure of the Red Family, if it was truly real or not." Miguel could only shake his head as he saw Aaliyah’s actions.
Though her prowess was that of fire and should have been a violent one, her personality was like the exact opposite. She was cold and easily embarrassed, and she didn’t like to talk much unless necessary.
Edith’s real personality, on the other hand, was just like her actions. She was confident, straightforward, and valiant. Perhaps only when it was just the two of them would her bearing change to that of a maiden in love.
Anyway, after Aaliyah left, Edith was no longer in the right mood to continue what she started earlier.
After hearing the al invitation from outside, Miguel and Edith decided to co out.
The [Concealnt Barrier] could only isolate the sounds within it, so anyone inside would still be aware of what was going on outside the barrier.
Like normal beasts and humans, contracted summons still need to consu food from ti to ti.
It was just that they were always in a state of slumber inside a low-level grimoire, so low-level summoners don’t need to feed and take care of them thoroughly all the ti, unlike summons bound by a Summoning Crystal.
When the Summoner and the Grimoire were promoted to a higher rank, though, this would actually change.
The al was normal but very comfortable for everyone present, especially for those who had been held captive by the bandits before.
This was their first proper al after a few days, so they could not help but feel emotional as they ate with the others.
"You guys can rest well; let us all handle the guard duties this ti," the Red Devils suggested after they were done eating.
However, even though they already assured everyone of their safety, their trust that has been broken could not be repaired just like that anymore. Although they went inside their respective tents, none of them were still able to sleep soundly in fear of getting betrayed once again. Fortunately, Mister Journey was there, providing them comfort amidst their worries.
On the other hand, Miguel was not idle either. His [Divine Sense] was turned on as he cultivated normally and refined Origin Energy with Edith by his side.
He had already seen through the Red Devil’s character, and he knew that they could not be trusted too much, even though they appeared kind at this mont.
He suddenly recalled how Randy and the others managed to get past his intuition, and he realized that they had actually not.
Back before they encountered their first demonized beast, his intuition had already inford him of the danger by making him feel uneasy. At that ti, he did not associate it with Randy and the others, as he believed that Erika had screened them thoroughly before she hired them.
At that ti, he thought that his intuition scread danger due to the demonized beasts; however, after looking back, he thought that it might have already warned him of the possible betrayal by Randy and the others.
No wonder the uneasiness did not stop even after they neutralized the demonized beast at that ti.
This was a lesson for him. Although his intuition was always right, he wouldn’t know for sure what it ant. His interpretation might be different from what it truly ant.
He was not worried, though. He knew that as he grew stronger, this Innate Skill of his, which doesn’t have a level, would also grow along with him.
With his eyes closed, Miguel refined the Origin Energy drop even faster than before. Though it could not be compared when they were dual-cultivating, it was still much faster compared to the previous ti he cultivated alone.
An Origin Energy drop would completely form after fifteen minutes. Unfortunately, he could only form 2 at this mont due to the limitations of the Grimoire Summoning Energy around them.
On the other hand, Edith kept watch as Miguel cultivated diligently.
She observed his face thoroughly, and she could not help but marvel at how handso his face was. Even as a woman, she could not help but feel inferior in terms of beauty.
She had seen countless beautiful won and handso n in her previous life; however, none of them could compare to Miguel’s face at all.
A smile suffused her face as she felt happy at the thought of how this handso face was her lover.
As she observed his face thoroughly, her smile suddenly disappeared and was replaced with a frown after her sensitive ears began to twitch.
Outside, a commotion has also spread as the Red Devils went into a state of high alert all of a sudden.
The sudden commotion also alerted Erika and the others, they went out of their tents one by one in vigilance. Their grimoires were already summoned and they were just a mont away from summoning their respective beasts.
Miguel snapped his eyes open with a frown.
’Of course, how can the night pass peacefully without a disturbance?’ He thought while shaking his head.
